Forgive me JK, for I have sinned.
I have given into temptation.
I have broken the most holy of bookworm rules.
I bought a Kindle.
I know, I know.
As an author and reader I'm supposed to hate Kindles.
I'm supposed to love the piles of books that I collect, and the smell of worn, bound leather books.
And I do. I still own over 100 books.
I love turning pages. I love holding books. I love the smell, the touch.
I love every single thing about books.
I even love the paper cuts I get, just because they're satisfying.
"Yeah, I got that on my copy of The Great Gatsby."
But I still love my Kindle very much.
And to deflect your sure scorn, I'm going to leave you with a Neil Gaiman quote.
Because you can't hate an awesome author like him.
""Don't ever apologize to an author for buying something in paperback, or taking it out from a library (that's what they're there for. Use your library). Don't apologize to this author for buying books second hand, or getting them from bookcrossing or borrowing a friend's copy. What's important to me is that people read the books and enjoy them, and that, at some point in there, the book was bought by someone. And that people who like things, tell other people. The most important thing is that people read... " — Neil Gaiman
